Mark's Remarks 4/6

This nationally known account comes from Leadership Journal:
In Hot Springs, Arkansas, is the Morris
Antique Mall. Nothing on the inside
distinguishes this antique store from dozens like it in Hot Springs. There's a musty smell and dusty relics from the past.But if you look closely at the outside of the Morris Antique Mall, you'll see something that makes it distinct: Before it was an antique store, it was a church building.A focus on the future prevents a church from becoming a resting place for rusty relics. Our church always was and always will be a tool for God. We love it so much because it has meant so much to us in times of pain, in moments of joy, in periods of loneliness and especially in the time when we needed to know that God loved us.

On Sunday, March 30th, the Liberty United Methodist Building Committee
presented a plan for our future. It is where we are going. It’s not a short journey. It is a privilege to be among those called to enter a clean, new and inviting land!
